Always one-on-one
Scarsdale since 2007
First session free
Who this is for
Parents come to us when they want more than a generic weight room. Our athletes are:
Not sure which one is yours? That is what the first session is for. Book a free assessment
“Our entire family trains here — two adults and two kids — and they’ve been outstanding with all of us. They know how to work effectively with both adults and children, tailoring sessions appropriately while still keeping everyone challenged”
The program
Every program is written for one athlete — their sport, their position, their body — and reassessed as they progress. One thing is in all of them.
Where every program starts
Movement and stability work that keeps athletes healthy all season.
Five Google reviewers name injury prevention by name, and three more name injury recovery — out of 53 reviews on the profile.
Acceleration, change of direction, and game-day power.
Real, transferable strength built on proper mechanics, not ego-lifting.
Programs tailored to your athlete’s actual sport and position.

For parents
Injury prevention
Every young athlete is coached one-on-one with relentless focus on technique — building strength while protecting growing bodies.
The coaches
Every trainer here is certified, and each one’s credentials are listed exactly as they hold them — nothing rounded up. Leo has trained athletes from high school through collegiate level.
Each certification, and the trainers who hold it
Questions parents ask
Who we train
Yes. Youth and high school athletes train here one-on-one, and founder Leo Lopes has trained athletes of all ranges including high school and collegiate. Before he coached, Leo pursued Judo at the Olympic level — training at Lake Placid and ranking 4th nationally — so competitive sport is not theory here.
Safety
No — that idea has been repeatedly disproven. What causes injury in young athletes is bad technique and too much load too fast, which is exactly what one-on-one coaching is designed to prevent. Every session is built around correct form first.
One-on-one
A school weight room is one coach to a whole team. Here your athlete has a certified trainer’s full attention, on a program written for their sport, their position and their body — not a team-wide template.
Post-rehab
Yes. Post-rehab work is something we specifically train for, and injury prevention is the reason the studio exists. We will work with your athlete’s physician or physical therapist. Five separate Google reviewers single out injury prevention by name.
In season
In-season load is a coaching judgement about one specific athlete, not a number we are willing to publish as a general rule. Leo will answer it here.
Until it is written, ask us directly — the free assessment answers it properly.
Call (914) 874-5451Pricing
Because every program is built one-on-one around a single athlete, pricing depends on how often they train and what they’re working toward. We’d rather give you a real figure for your athlete than a generic rate that doesn’t fit — so we talk it through directly. The first session is free either way, with no card required, and you’ll know exactly how sessions are structured and priced before you commit to anything.
Free assessment
We’ll evaluate your athlete’s movement, strength, and goals, then show you exactly how we’d build their program. No cost, no commitment.
